Mexico’s aggregate demand expanded at an annual rate of 5.00% in the first quarter of 2026, edging up from 4.50% recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025. The data, updated on 18 June 2026, indicate a modest strengthening in overall demand in the Mexican economy on a year-over-year basis.
The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, where the current quarter’s change is measured against the same quarter a year earlier, and the previous reading likewise compares the earlier quarter with its corresponding period a year before. The pickup from 4.50% to 5.00% suggests that the pace of growth in spending by households, businesses, government, and the external sector has slightly increased as Mexico entered 2026.
